The headers are base64 encoded so this gets you better jibberish anyway–

perl -CSD -MEncode -MMIME::Base64 -le 'print decode"UTF-16be", decode_base64"Subject: bobbypin22, A Ne=?UTF-16?B?dwAgAEMAcgBlAGQAaQB0ACAAQwBhAHIAZAAgAEMAbwB1AGwAZAAgAEIAZQAgAEgAZQBhAGQAZQBkACAAWQBvAHUAcgAgAFcAYQB5AA==?="'

You'll have to play around with the encoding stuff maybe but the MIME::Base64 is probably all you're missing.

Update, looking at it more, it seems that it is doing something with the encoding I'm not familiar with… (embedded UTF-16?B stuff). So, someone will probably give a better answer, or I'll look more in a couple hours.

That string on it's own looks like possibly clean Chinese when decoded (I don't read any so, uh, hope it's not echoed spam)–
